Miguel Vargas to the injured list for oblique strain
ANAHEIM, Calif. – The Chicago White Sox have placed infielder Miguel Vargas on the 10-day injured list due to a left oblique strain.
Vargas, 25 years old, was removed from Saturday night’s game, in which the White Sox achieved a 1-0 victory against the Angels. The player, acquired from the Dodgers as part of a three-way trade in July 2024, has a batting average of .229 with 13 home runs and 44 RBIs in 106 games.
In addition, the White Sox have called up infielder Curtis Mead from Triple-A Charlotte before the final game of the series against the Angels. Left-handed pitcher Bryan Hudson and right-handed pitcher Elvis Peguero were claimed off waivers from Milwaukee and assigned to Charlotte.
Mead, 24, arrived at the team after the White Sox traded right-handed pitcher Adrian Houser to Tampa Bay on Thursday. In 49 games with the Rays this year, he batted .226 with three home runs and eight RBIs.
